Random Behaviour
Blasé is a state of being bored, jaded, stagnant, dull, or miserable. This feeling may result from a series of life experiences or negligence, and on a smaller scale, from a hangover or comedown. The easiest remedy for this feeling is to take a drug or have a drink; these solutions are equally pleasurable and destructive. At some point, the solutions for a blasé attitude or state become more random, and in this process, we do too.
The act of setting a dandelion on fire is senseless and momentarily satisfying, stupid yet visually compelling. It breaks the fluffy cover of the seed head, leaving it vulnerable and naked.
But you know, whatever—it can survive without it.
Just like us.
